Jump to PostTechnically 1024mb = 1gb but disk manufacturers say it = 1000mb so they can say thier drives are bigger. Thats why your "500gb" drive may show up as less
songs are stored in different places depending on your setup.
Jump to PostThey're on the hard drive. The RAM's just there for your 'puta to put stuff temporarily that's is working on at the moment. RAM gets cleared when you power off.

but no, they are saved to the hard drive.
